Arriving at goblin village. Darren gets a cold welcome from the villagers. They were not unwilling to welcome, but they were simply terrified.
The four goblins began trying to convince the citizens that Darren was not a dangerous person.
The goblins in the village were extremely weak. They have small bodies, green skin, and their thin bodies. Darren was concerned.
A goblin known as the village chief came over to Darren. Different from the others, the village chief had a rather large body. His body was equivalent to the size of an adult human.
"Do you want to come here?" Asked the Goblin while looking arrogant.
"Not much. I just came to stop by and spend the night here" Darren replied.
"Bohong! Kau pasti datang untuk mengepung desa ini!" Teriak kepala desa. "Kau pasti sudah menyiapkan pasukan untuk menyerang dari segala arah."
Darren tried to deny. "Really, I didn't mean that." He replied, "You can ask those four goblins." He said while pointing at the four goblins earlier.
"Based liar! You must have threatened them. You promised safety to those who helped you, didn't you!?" The village chief still insisted on not trusting Darren.
Without saying much, the village chief immediately pulled out an axe and attacked Darren in front of the goblin inhabitants.
Darren quickly dodged.
"I guessed it. You must be an adventurer!" Shouted the village chief while raging.
Darren can't stay still. He could feel the killing intent on that axed goblin. This time he had to fight earnestly, or his life would be threatened.
Darren immediately pulled out his small knife.
"I won't be able to fight against him using this little knife."
"His axe strike range is wider than my knife. It's gonna be so hard."
"At least, I have to find something longer."
Darren looked around. He was looking for something he could use.
He only found a wooden barrel. Likely, the barrel was quite heavy. He could have thrown it at the Goblin and paralyzed it.
Set... Set... Slashwas... Darren swung his knife at the goblin. But the goblin's skin was too hard and managed to break Darren's blade. Now Darren can only fight with his bare hands.
"Ha. ha. ha. ha.. you're dead!" Shouted The Goblin was arrogant. "Give up and submit to me!"
Darren quickly ran over to the wooden barrel. There was not much he could do with it other than throw it.
Swuungs... Prerack... The barrel hit the head of the Goblin. Make it stand for a few seconds. Darren quickly ran over and hit the Goblin's face with his foot.
Gubrakk... The goblin fell.
Although it had not completely collapsed, the goblin was already weak enough to be defeated. Darren was disappointed that the goblin was not as strong as he thought. Plus the goblin was too arrogant.
With his speed, Darren immediately ran over to the goblin to kick him once more. Maybe it could paralyze him.
"Damn! What am I supposed to do!?" Thought Darren.
Without thinking much, Darren tried to catch the axe with his hand. He knew that his hand could have been cut off, but it was better than losing his head.
Darren quickly swung his hand and caught the iron blade on the axe. Sretti... Darren managed to catch the ax with the grip of his hand even though he had to sacrifice his ring finger and middle finger.
"Aghhh!" Darren groaned in pain.
While the goblin was smiling viciously. Darren then fell to the ground.
The goblin stood up again and approached Darren, intending to finish him off. He raised his axe high.
Darren who had been limp, began to resign.
"Am I going to die again? I just lived again."
"If only I were strong. I can save others and paint a smile on their faces."
"But in fact, I can't even save myself."
"If only I had such power in anime and manga. Where the main character is overpowering."
"Just like..."
"The power of lightning."
Duars!!! A lightning bolt struck the retraced Goblin, causing it to bounce far away and hit a hut.
Darren who saw the incident was shocked. He did not know where the lightning came from, and who did it.
"What's going on? And why did my energy suddenly recover?" Darren Mumbled.
While the goblin was already dying, Darren approached him.
"I beg you, just kill me!" The Goblin said desperately. "If you kill me, you can get a high level. So you don't have to kill the villagers."
Darren finally came to his senses. The goblins were fighting not for no reason. He fought to defend his village from adventurers.
Beside Darren, lay the axe of the goblin. He took it and kept the axe in his bag.
"I won't kill you, nor the villagers" Darren said as he kept his axe. "I'm going to get out of here. I don't want to cause any more trouble."
After that Darren shouted for help to the other goblins to treat the wounded Goblin.
"Actually, who are you?" Ask the Goblin while moaning in pain.
Darren smiled too. "Darren," The answer. "And.thank you for the axe."
After that, Darren left the village.
